Week 3 of New Bonds

Another day, another delayed blog post. Ever since school started, I’ve just been putting it off since I’ve got school most of the time. Then on weekends, I try to do as much as I can to really experience Melbourne fully to the very second. It’s been working out pretty well so far and every…

Week 2 of horrible sleeping schedules

I thought I had finally achieved a “healthy” sleeping schedule when I would wake up every morning at 9 all by myself, but little did I know that my old habits would soon catch up with me. I started sleeping more at 2 am and this resulted in me waking up half way throughout the…

Never out of bitterness

I told myself it was time to let go. To let go of the uncertainty, the expectations that were never going to happen, and the self-doubt. There might be many different ways of looking at this, but I’m making sure I’m making it clear which way this should be looked at. I didn’t do it…

What I’m worried about

So during exam season I read somewhere (probably thought catalog) that if you were to write down all of your worries/troubles before an exam, it will make you feel a whole lot better. BS.

A year in reflection (2012)

So I’ve decided to do a post like this after every birthday to basically summarize a compendium of thoughts, experiences, what have I learned, what have I done, what I probably shouldn’t have done, etc… Like a self-reflection/rants (those things that my mom used to tell me to do when I do something wrong).

Long overdue Thanksgiving meal

So being a student in a foreign city thousand of miles away from home, you don’t get to go back home very often, especially not for a 3 day weekend like Thanksgiving. So my friends and I set up a little Thanksgiving dinner for the ones who are stuck here for the weekend with no…
